Hi Ismail,

It is probably heretical to say this on a Bhaskar list, but I have found 
Whitehead's discussion of the "fallacy of misplaced concreteness" in his 
"Science and the Modern World" to be more useful than anything else I have 
ever read on reification, event though he has a different label for it.
